Study finds "search engines seem to lose the cat-and-mouse game that is SEO spam."

I guess we all kinda knew that, but it’s always nice to have a study backing your opinions.

    Do you find the limited number of searches enough? I’d do it if it were unlimited for $5, but not going to pay $10 for a search engine.

      Depends. I use search engines a lot as a programmer. I have over 600 so far. But the results have been good. I’m willing to pay for that.

      I thought I’d burn through them but I haven’t had an issue. I use DDG for low hanging fruit but I’m going to stop bothering.

      I’m at 243 searches now and it resets in 8 days. Seems to be enough for me.

      I do use bangs quite a bit, so if I need to find a movie I go !imdb the matrix and if I’m looking for a book I can go !gr rando splicer which saves on search credits.
